Todd Salmi

Hey everyone! My name is Todd Salmi and I am blessed to be the Pastor of the United Campus Ministry of Texas State.

Every day brings its own excitement around the UCM. We’ve got students from all different backgrounds meeting up in this building and trying to figure out school, life, relationships, and faith with one another all at the same time. It's a blessing to part of it!

This is a new job for me. I just started in July so I look forward to meeting people, planting new ministries, praying with you, and leading local community volunteer work. That said, I've been a pastor in San Marcos for the past five years so I know the town pretty well! I've also served in various other church settings including as Director of Family Ministries at achurch with a large substance recovery community, as a chaplain intern at Georgia's Metro State Women's Prison, as children's education director of St. Michael and All Angels Anglican Church in Cuernavaca Mexico, and as an engaged member of Hyde Park UMC-Austin where I led Bible study and evangelism efforts.

A bit about me…My wife, Mari, is a biomolecular scientist with a PhD from the University of Texas who works with a startup company at Texas State STAR Park. We have three kids who keep us busy and enjoy hanging out on the couches at the UCM. I love video games, computer programing, hot funyuns, and chilling at the San Marcos River.

I hope you’ll come by and check out the UCM, have some fun with us, and see if this is the right fit for you as look for an encouraging faith community while you’re here at Texas State!
